The genre of street riding has continued to grow in the BMX community since the early 1990s. BMX street riders use man-made obstacles such as ledges and hand-rails to perform present-day tricks. Street BMX bikes have a lighter construction than bikes used for trail riding or racing. Street riders must be able to jump into the air while easily lifting the bike to execute the majority of modern-day BMX tricks.
